Can I pick up a package early?

Post by slave2soul »

Hi All,

So I have an important package scheduled to arrive tomorrow. My question is - Can I get to the Delivery Office at 7am tomorrow (when it opens) and pick up my package before it's put onto the vans for delivery? I have a tracking number and I can take proof of address, identity.

It's a really important item that I need for tomorrow afternoon.

Would this be possible?

Many Thanks!

Official no you can't do that, however if your desperate there is no harm in trying the worst that would happen is they say no, if they do say no, don't get upset as that is the correct procedure

odds are it won't have been sorted by 7am so no one will have a clue were it is.
